A new kid in the house, good to see.

Short info, Lenin Castillo was coming off two consecutive losses and fought Najee Lopez 6 years after his defeat to Dmitry Bivol.

It's not to take away credit, because it is indeed a good step up for upcoming light heavyweight prospect who will take harder challenges and likely succeed. Just not sure if these fights can be used as a good comparison.

yes I gauge an up and comer's level by seeing if they outperform the fighter who first face a shared opponent

Najee knocked Lenin out, but Bivol schooled him

Najee uses defensive rolls and body punching

Bivol is master fencer whose lead hand is a wand of wizardry and mover

That ref is a Benavidez brother idc.

Gradus Kraus is the one to watch at light heavyweight.

He said “prospect,” not “contender.” I’d like to see Najee vs. Kalajdzic - there’s a tough opponent for him, and then move up to the bigger fights
